Noticed this as well, I have .nomedia files in certain folders which worked before the last update but doesn't seem to be working now and can't see an option to exclude specific folders.
I used piktures previously and it's very good, free, no ads and plenty of options.

[Q] Thumbnails for movies?

Anyone know how to add thumbnails for movies you put in the gallery? I used DVD Catalyst to convert some movies (awesome application by the way totally worth it if youre looking for how to put movies on virtually any device). Only problem is unless I use THEIR gallery and add a picture with same name as the movie, it wont display a thumbnail - using their gallery clogs my own gallery with pictures and movies that are black, and they leave a border around the movie that isnt black - annoying. *sigh*
Anyone else have luck?

Hi Spartacus,
Thank you for using DVD Catalyst,
I created the player-app because there wasn't anything else out there that would let you use your own cover images for your video files. Before the 3.1 update on HC, you could create a folder, put a video file in it and then an image file, and it would display it in the Gallery app, but Google broke that with the 3.1 update, so I made the app. I still haven't seen anything else that works in a similar way.
I have been working on an update for it all week, and after I read your post, I did make some changes regarding the images, so the next update will have them not show up in Gallery.

Thanks, looking forward to the update. I know myself and a lot of others still want a way to add thumbnails for movies in the gallery.

Same here, but with that being a gripe since the beginning of Android, I don't think that is going to happen anytime soon. Because the idea behind it is so simple and obvious, I was expecting someone to come up with it, but since that never happened, I figured I'd give it a shot.

Now I upload APK file as attachment.
I am glad i have occassion for downloading this application, from attachement, as it was since beginning of xdadev, before android era.
Two things after quick test, as I see it:
- no 480p for 480p screens in quality options(-1, okk we all know, that rich people have htc one, or just feeble s4, and 480p suck(especially while used on 480p screens used by majority of poor people without s3 or h1)),
- no skinning(even light/dark), (-1, we all know, that we DO like charging devices' battery all the time, and we all do like white ffffff color as GUI at night, as we are Walmart consumers uisng device in bright light only, shout with me: NIGHTIME SUCK!).
Third, and forth thing:
+ works,
+ feels snappy.
So, when we could expect r2?

Hi, I add 480 support now. Only available on android 4.0+, YouTube only provide 480p in webm format, which means only can use software decoder. Please update the APK from attachment.

This is a great app, and highly recommended.
Is it possible to have a tablet version of the app?
Because the section showing the video is a bit small on my tablet, yet it is perfectly fine on my phone.

I noticed that I can't click on the uploader names when watching videos.
It would be great if I could click on any user names and see their channels and playlists.

There is no inverted style right now. I will add it in future.

Gallary App - Box.net photo albums

Hey everyone,
i could of sworn that i read somewhere that the gallary app had integrated file storage sites, such as box.net into the app. so basically, i could see my albums from box.net in the gallary. This would be similar to how windows phone lets you see your skydrive albyms in their photos app.
I didnt see anything in the gallary settings, nor did anything chane when i installed the official box.net app. anyone know if this is possible?
i used to keep all my photos (years of cell photos from all smartphones i ever owened) on my sd card on my S3, but since this doesnt have it, i uploaded everything to box.net.
Any help would be appreciated.
Anyone?

I don't know how this new offline youtube feature works. But you can always sideload TubeMate.
Actually the download icon lets us to save *allowed* videos for offline viewing from official YouTube app.
Update: This is the path and format of several such chunks of files.

Can anyone create app to convert these files as avi or mp4 please? Or suggest methods.

Yes tubemate and utubedownloader apps all works but my question is especially for official app. How to crack it?
Can anyone decompile YouTube apk and write the output stream to h263 mp3/avi/mp4? Please see OP for link.

As for as a source -
"1-- Google is using EXO file format to save videos. This is apparently a file format used for system files and while we managed to copy these EXO files onto a computer, it can be apparently played only through the YouTube Android app.
2-- When you request a download for an offline video in the YouTube app, the video is downloaded in chunks. For example, a 3-minute file we downloaded was saved in five parts. It is possible that only the YouTube app for Android can make sense of these chunks and join them together.
3-- We also feel there is real-time encryption going on here. When the video is downloaded, not only it is broken into parts but is also converted to EXO format, compressed and encrypted in real time. This has several benefits, the one obvious benefit is that people can't copy-paste the video and share it indiscriminately. The compression, meanwhile, saves space on the disk. For example, the 3-minute long video that we downloaded actually consumed around 40MB data. But when stored on the phone, the video took only around 25mb space.
4-- When a user plays the video, it is decrypted in real time. It is possible that only YouTube's app can do this decryption.
5- If you share the offline video using Bluetooth, instead of the actual file, a web link to the video is sent to the recipient."
My idea is not to break head in YouTube encryption and decryption.
Will it be possible to use YouTube app itself to decrypt and write the output stream as mp4/avi video using ffmpeg codec?
We would require to decompile YouTube apk. The reason for this question is, YouTube is default app in almost all Android phones. There is good market out there.

The YouTube app can play those files. so if you could rebuild the YouTube app itself to play and convert we can do it. Pardon me if I'm being dump.

It's an android only thing it seems, not a YouTube only thing.
There are other android apps (subscription services) that save the files in exo format & they are all real paranoid about piracy, hence the use of encrypted exo.
If many apps use the file format, then someone might be able to come up with a media player capable of playing those.
bro we can create an decrypting app
That World be very great !
Couse i searched much of Tracks in Beatport and Traxsource to pay for them.
But the Most Tracks i only find in YouTube. Couse im doing sometimes Dj Set's for Radio the GEMA and Licens will be payed Form Fm4 so i dont need to pay for the Tracks since i didnt Play them in a Club or something.
Please write if their is an converter for exo Files to mp3 ....
